Happy Earth Day! We hear it all of the time, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. (Listen to this while reading.) It's in a specific order for a reason. First, you don't use stuff. Then, if you do use stuff, use it as many times as you can. Finally, if you have stuff that you can't reuse, recycle it so that the material can be used again. The greenest thing you can do is reduce!
So how can Miami Goin' Green (April 25, 2009 @ Bayfront Park) help with the 3R's? Please note that everything is FREE. Here it goes:
REDUCE
Clear2Go Water Bottle with Filter - Bring in 6 disposable water bottles to recycle and get a free reusable bottle. It gives a whole new meaning to BYOB (bottle!).
REUSE
Fashion Forward (a clothing swap) presented by Goodwill – bring a bag of gently used clothes and walk away with clothes that are new to you!
Green Gift Wrapping Demos – Swing by the Eclectica booth for a demonstration of how to use items around your house to wrap gifts!
RECYCLE
All American Secure Shredding – bring your documents to be shredded and recycled.
eWaste Recycling - bring your old cell phones, computers, and other electronic waste for recycling.
Green Team - watch out for our Green Team around the festival! They'll help you sort your trash into compostable, recyclable, and actual garbage. This will lessen the impact of the festival, as well!
Please note that there will be a drop-off area on the edge of the park by the Intercontinental so that you can drop off your items and then go park your car. Of course, you guys are all arriving on bikes (free valet!) and the MetroMover, right?
You can also learn about the 3R's at our Eco Stage. Check out the schedule.
